Heh.. Yes. This is the main reason I'm still running 2.0.29 on my box. I
want to go to 2.0.32 for SYN_ cookies and other goodies -- i've patched
just about everything else on 2.0.29...

Hey. If it compiled and works, it's all good. What tree did you get your
older one from?

I have a p133 on a Triton VX board with 96mb ram. No SCSI disks yet.

Also installed in my box is a GUS PnP w/ 8.5mb ram (can't buy these
anymore it seems), a Realtek pcine2k, and a #9 330 (S3) graphics card with
2mb ram.

I think I may need to reboot to get the BIOS version from the 2940u. When
I get home, I'll reboot this box.
Someone mentioned something about automatic termination not working
correctly in the new driver, or a different setting on the card being
required. Any confirmations?
